Songtext von Took It Away

Five pretty boys for ten shitty years Five girls next door, I'm up to my ears I need a reaction, a new revolution All over the country, 'cos they took it away They took it away, it can't be impossible They're playing the records that they play in hospital Radio playlist for the terminally ill You can't tell they're miming 'till you're over the hill And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...) And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...) If you put it like that, you'll be dead some day Set the record straight - they took it all away They took it away, left us with nothing Second-hand hits and million misses Nobody means it, they're making up stories You gotta blame someone, you can't blame the Tories I blame myself, I want an easy life Does it really matter, ain't worth no suicide The bigger they come, the harder they fall I'm kicking myself for wasting it all And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...) And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...) If you put it like that, you'll be dead some day Set the record straight - they took it all away They took it away, left us with nothing You suffer the pain of your fingers burning And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...) And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...) If you put it like that, you'll be dead some day Set the record straight - they took it all away
